The Future of Data Science. On Video.

For those of you who didn't catch Jeremy's talk at the O'Reilly Strata Conference, it's up online. This talk outlines our vision for Kaggle and the future of data science, and why data scientists like 3-time KDD winner Claudia Perlich should be as rich and famous as a guy named Roger Federer, who's really good at getting a small yellow ball over a net.

The talk (and Jeremy's wife's illustrations) illustrate how easy it is to create competitions on Kaggle, and how Kaggle competition winners have bested state of the art algorithms in fields from cosmology to actuarial prediction - high consequence domains where Kaggle's top competitors are making a real-world difference.

While we're not shy to draw attention to our own conference talks, we'd love to draw attention to Kaggle competitors' talks and other public presentations. If you have a link to video or powerpoint from a conference presentation you've given, please send it to us with a description of a talk so that we can post it and move you one step closer to Roger Federer-style celebrity. If you have any upcoming talks, send us a link to the conference program and we'll find a way to make the Kaggle community aware of it, so that Kagglers can show up to see you in person.
